- The 1998 NBA playoffs was the postseason tournament of the National Basketball Association's 1997–98 season. The tournament concluded with the two-time defending NBA champion and Eastern Conference champion Chicago Bulls defeating the Western Conference champion Utah Jazz 4 games to 2 in the NBA Finals. The Bulls also achieved a second three peat, a goal unrivaled since the Boston Celtics in 1966. The 1998 playoffs was the last involving the Jordan-led Bulls (Chicago didn't make the playoffs again until 2005). Michael Jordan was named NBA Finals MVP for the sixth and final time. The Indiana Pacers took the Bulls to the limit in the Eastern Conference Finals, becoming 1 of only 2 teams to force a Game 7 in the Bulls' title years (the Knicks achieved this in 1992). This team was later named by Pacers.com as the greatest in franchise history, even better than the 2000 team that won the Eastern Conference Title, primarily due to their record. The New Jersey Nets made the playoffs for the first time since 1994, but did not appear again until 2002. Their presence was a mere asterisk compared to what they accomplished in 2002, getting swept by the eventual champion Bulls. The Cleveland Cavaliers lost to Indiana in the first round 3–1 and did not appear again until 2006. The Los Angeles Lakers advanced to the Western Conference Finals for the first time since 1991. They were ultimately swept by the Jazz. Game 5 of the Jazz-Rockets series would be the final game of Clyde Drexler's career. (en)

- Los Playoffs de la NBA de 1998, fueron el torneo final de la temporada 1997-98 de la NBA. El campeón fue Chicago Bulls (Conferencia Este), que conseguía así su sexto título de la década, ante el campeón de la conferencia Oeste, Utah Jazz. Este playoff, suponía el último de la era Bulls-Jordan y los de Chicago, no volverían a los playoffs, hasta el 2005. El MVP de las Finales, fue Michael Jordan de los Chicago Bulls. Indiana Pacers empujó a los Bulls hasta el límite, en las finales de la Conferencia Este, llegando a ser uno de los dos equipos, que forzaban a Chicago, a disputar siete partidos, durante los años en los que los Bulls, se proclamaban campeones (el otro equipo que lo consiguió, fue New York Knicks en 1992). Estos Pacers fueron más tarde nombrados por Pacers.com, como el mejor equipo de Indiana, en la historia de la franquicia, incluso mejor que el del año 2000, que ganó la final de la Conferencia Este.
